HOUSTON – JetBlue knows flying with a baby can be stressful to parents and other passengers, especially when babies cry.

For some JetBlue customers, the sound of a baby's cry never sounded so sweet.

"This will be the very first flight where crying babies is a good thing," the flight attendant said in JetBlue's YouTube video.

JetBlue told passengers on a recent flight from New York to Long Beach, California, that whenever a baby cried, they each would receive 25 percent off a future flight.

After four babies cried, that meant the discount was 100 percent. Each passenger earned a free round-trip ticket.

JetBlue's "FlyBabies" campaign is in honor of Mother's Day this Sunday. The airline hopes it gives "everyone a reason to smile every time a baby cries."
